“I’m asking why do you guys keep repeating that it is the death rate?”

When ever the FluBros invade the threads and post (often times completely bogus) stats they (often times deliberately) conflate the definitions. It simply isn’t worth the time to correct the terminology (even though I just posted such to you) and as long as we all know what ratios we’re talking about, we only have to sort out the occasional new reader.

Basically, the FluBros keep trying to (deliberately) muddle things up and most people can’t be bothered to straighten them out.

I disagree. IMO the FluBros are trying to convince THEMSELVES that they’re right, because it would be just tragic if they weren’t. It’s their chosen means of dealing with their own cognitive dissonance.

You're admitting that confirmed cases over death isn't the same as infected over death. Yet state confirmed cases over death as though it's the "death rate"

Then you says "they (often times deliberately) conflate the definitions"

You're really into Saul Alinsky? Or do you have trouble in math regarding conversions? Such as acceleration kilometer/square second does not equal to metre/square second.

Today’s FluBro daily distinction: people dying with Corona as opposed to those dying from Corona.

Clear, eh?
